George came to Princeton from the Elizabeth, N.J., public schools. Freshman year he roomed with Bill Browning, next door to Pete Conrad; he lived during his three final years with Phil Goodell, Bud LePage, and Dick West. He belonged to Campus Club, and with them played touch football, basketball, and softball – pleasant memories. He graduated with honors in history.

Having earned a doctor of theology degree at Union Theological Seminary in New York City, he taught at Lake Forest College and the College of Wooster. In 1968 he began teaching social ethics in the religious studies department at the University of Windsor (Ontario). He focused on a wide range of issues, including social responsibility in engineering and business, war and peace, environmental protection, the dynamics of nonviolent action, the global food system, poverty, and economics.

Since his retirement in 1996, George had worked to achieve public banking that could provide essentially interest-free loans for government spending, thus overcoming the devastating austerity agenda.

After coping with prostate cancer for many years, he died July 23, 2018. George is survived by his wife, Donna; five children and their spouses; and seven grandchildren.
